Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

nigelbroome About as far away from the shining and cabin in the woods as you could possibly get. Terrible acting, unbelievable story line and just poor start to finish. I'm still annoyed that they could compare these films to this rubbish, completely misleading and and an outright lie.The make up was so amateur it was laughable, I really do not understand how this rubbish can get produced and sell in a shop. I genuinely feel cheated and ripped off, there should be tighter controls on the information given on the DVD box. For instance rotten tomatoes gave it 9% so how could they then endorse it?Do not waste your time watching this film.

Poptart_Psycho I have no idea on where to start with The Lodge, there's many more wrongs then rights with this film. Is it the cliché "Why are you doing this" lines or the predictability. Most movies have a basic plot nothing to exciting but executed well this unfortunately wasn't.The Plot... So basically Micheal wants to surprise his partner Julie by taking her to a nice lodge. When they arrive they believe someone else is living there it turns out to be the caretaker. Julie starts to find him a bit creepy but Micheal shrugs it off. Its only when the couple go walking in the woods they find an abandoned car with bloodstains they get suspicious. Runing back they try to find their phones of course they have gone and the phone lines have been cut. Whilst hunting they come across a tied up young girl they try to escape with. Cliché enough she turns out to be on the caretakers side and the movie becomes a cat and mouse thriller.No its the not the best movie made, I wouldn't say its worth a buy but if its on TV its watchable. For the hardcore horror fan its one you would be okay about missing

firebird7478-223-619790 All I kept thinking of as I watched this movie was the line in the commercial that spoofs horror/triller movies, "Why can't we just get in the running car?!"I will give them credit, they got people to put up money to get their movie made, which isn't easy to do. They followed the standard formula...keep your locations to a minimum. Keep your characters to a minimum. Some times it works. Some times it doesn't. In this case it doesn't and the reason for me is the script.We know why Michael is bringing Julia to the lodge and it is done nicely and subtly in one quick shot. But, there is no rhyme or reason as to why the killer is a killer or why his child is as well. No background at all.What burned me is the dialog. I don't know why Michael would brag to a perfect stranger about his girlfriend's sexual prowess, as an example. Too much talking during the stalking process. The less said, the better, especially with all the "Why are your trying to kill us" clichés.Still, it gives hope to aspiring film makers that they, too, can get their film made. Stick to the formula, but come up with a better script.

Bo Schreurs A good horror movie should contain at least the following ingredients, suspense, shock, nudity, gore, an insane character, and if you're lucky a good plot. None of it in this movie. The beginning of the movie is worth an 8, from then on it's all down the hill. First of all, the begin credits makes one insane, text, 5 seconds movie, text, movie, text, and then movie finally begins. Almost made me stop watching this movie. Then 20 minutes of boredom, no suspense, no sex (to be seen anyway), no killings, nothing. Would you hire a lodge for the weekend with your girlfriend, while the one who rents it to you stays in it during that weekend as well? Not me. Finally the horror starts, the guy gets tied up, and the girl gets raped. Well, you have to assume that, because you can only hear her scream, sort of, but it is not shown. Not that we need to see such a thing, but it would be nice, if at least we saw the madman shred her t-shirt to bits. None of it. Even worse, her t-shirt gets never stained with blood or dirt, it keeps clean until the very end of the movie. Needless to say that the only one who gets killed is the madman, who claims to be killing people for 16 years already, by the wounded girl. Even the last scene didn't save this movie. No plot, no nudity, no suspense, a bit gore, and just a little bit insanity. That's the real horror of this movie, a complete waste of time. Don't bother to watch it, even it is a rental. Don't say you weren't warned. Shudder...
